Preamble I believe I have said it before but I have never been a huge fan of Thor books. But a major win for me in the All-new Marvel NOW! has been Thor. And as I peer at a cover with the Dark Elf Malekith fighting Thor on the heals of Thor: The Dark World, […]
Original Sin #1 (Comic Files)
Preamble Another crossover event! Hey why don’t I still this one out until the trade, I’m sure there is nothing to see here! Wait, Nick Fury Sr, Nick Fury Sr. is in the house. I’m in! Where’s my copy of Original Sin #1 by Jason Aaron and art by Mike Deodato? Situation Report Uatu […]
Infinity (Comic Files)
Preamble Earlier I gave Jonathan Hickman’s a three-issue ride, before I stopped reading. My main complaint was there was enough going on between issues in other connected titles that I was not reading that the story often did not make full sense. But I did provide it a second chance recently in the collected, Infinity. […]
Secret War (Comic Files)
Preamble No, it’s not Secret Wars! And it is not even Secret Wars 2! Secret War is a Nick Fury driven story that could be ripped from today’s headlines, if it was not for the super villains and heroes that decorate this story. But with an introduction written by an unnamed member of the intelligence […]
Ultimate Comics Ultimates by Sam Humphries – Volume 1 (Comic Files)
Preamble I admit it, we really should cover more books from Marvel’s Ultimate Universe. The Ultimate Nick Fury is honestly more closely related to the Marvel Cinematic Universe than Nick Fury Jr. in the Marvel 616. And Ultimate Comices Ultimates by Sam Humphries – Volume 1 is a great example of how the MCU could use Marvel […]
Thor God of Thunder: Godbomb (Comic Files)
Preamble I really enjoyed Thor God of Thunder: The God Butcher making it really painful as I waited for the second half of the story in Thor God of Thunder: Godbomb. So was all of my impatience waiting worth it? Would Thor pay off again as he fights the God Butcher for a reviewer who […]
Avengers: Prelude to Infinity (Comic Files)
Preamble Infinity is coming, Infinity is coming! Actually it came and if you follow this crossover monthly, well likely over. Infinity did not work for me in single issues. Most of that had to do with the feeling I was not getting all of the story since I was not reading all of the issues beyond the […]
Indestructible Hulk: Gods and Monsters (Comic Files)
Preamble I really enjoyed the first volume of Indestructible Hulk. So Indestructible Hulk: Gods and Monsters written by Mark Waid and illustrated by Walter Simonson and Matteo Scalera had a lot to live up to. The three faced the problem of writing a compelling book out of a character who honestly cannot be killed and […]
Age of Ultron (Comic Files)
Preamble In 2015 we get The Avengers: Age of Ultron. This announcement came out right after the conclusion of the Age of Ultron mini-series written by Brian Michael Bendis. Now clearly this future movie cannot translate the story frame for frame as it is incorporated into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It is possible that the […]
Spider-Men (Comic Files)
Preamble Usually here at Welcome to Level Seven we focus on Marvel 616 for Comic Files. Maybe this is a mistake since the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and Ultimate Universe share a lot of similarities. Recently a story from the Ultimate Universe caught our attention and forces us to dive into the Ultimate Universe. Spider-Men […]
